Cas coach Matterson will settle for a scrappy win

Castleford 18 Hull KR 10
A poor-quality, error-ridden game it may have been, but a win's a win and Castleford Tigers were full value for their 18-10 triumph over out-of-form Hull KR at the Jungle.
Cas made things hard for themselves by stepping off the gas in the second half after building an 18-0 interval lead, but some spirited defence kept the visitors at arms' length.

The game wasnt that bad, but at least TM is being realistic with his comments this time. There was a few good points in the game. Especially shiftys input into the game first half.

I would happily settle for very scrappy wins in all the remaining games this season!!

I would love us to beat Wakey meaning they did'nt finish in the top 6 that would be great

Hmmm, so who have we got left to play..

Saints Away
London Away
Huddersfield Home
Wakefield Away
Leeds Away
Warrington Home
Bradford Home

Scrappy wins against any of these would be nice. Our home record isn't that bad (we've been close a few times) and we've still 3 home games left. I wouldn't mind a scrappy away win either. Do we really sand a chance of getting off the bottom of the table though ? It doesn't look very likely does it.

Realistically we should be looking to win 3 games in a row with Quins, Hudders and Wakey and maybe Warrington at home as at home we'll give anyone a game, i feel if we lose to more than 3 of these 7 teams we'll finish wooden spoon.

Next win will be Wakey away! thats if we continue on our current form, 4 games which we either lose or draw, then we win the 5th game.

The 25th game is Leeds away, not Wakey mate.

Thats true ...

5th round - WON - Leeds
10th round - WON - St Helens
15th round - WON - Warrington
18th round - DREW - Wigan
20th round - WON - Hull KR

So according to form we will beat Rhinos in the 25th round.

Oh well, we'll have to buck the trend and beat Wakey aswell.

From looking at the games we've got left. To get off the bottom we would somehow have to win at least two on the trot.
